It depends on the amount of clay that is in the granular soil. Typically granular soils have low cohesion. A clean sand will have 0 cohesion.

What is field capacity of soil?
field capacity is the quantity of water that is retained by a soil after drainage by cohesion and adhesion.
Cohesionless soil is better or cohesion soil?
For what? A playground sandbox?As substructure for building a highway?Farming wheat?Mixing with manure to make bricks?
What information does a soil test give you?
The pH of the soil (acid or alkaline) the percentage of organic matter, and the level of nutrients are basic tests for GARDENING. For Construction, there are different tests including the size of soil particles, and the ability of soil to support weight, and how well it sticks to itself (cohesion)
What is the difference between granular and non-granular rocks?
Granular rocks are rocks that are made up of small crystal-like granules. Non-granular rocks are rocks that are not made up of small crystal-like granules.
What is cohesion value of clay?
The cohesion value of clay is its shear strength under conditions of no confining pressure.
How do the strength and cohesion of clay-rich regolith or soil change with the addition of water?
water lowers the strength and cohesion
Would Granular soil or cohesive soil be greater runoff?
cohesive soil would have more runoff since the water would be less likely to seep past the surface layer. On granular soils, the passage ways are larger and the water can quickly seep into the structure of the soil.

field capacity is the quantity of water that is retained by a soil after drainage by cohesion and adhesion.
What two forces help soil hold water?
Adhesion and Cohesion

Why the principle of effective stress important in soil mechanics?
coz at the end of structure construction soil grains are the one whic carry the load so useful in analysis of bearing capacity of granular soil
What is apparent cohesion?
geology) In soil mechanics, the resistance of particles to being pulled apart due to the surface tension of the moisture film surrounding each particle. Also known as film cohesion.
Is granite granular?
Granite is very granular.

What is granular error?
granular error is the small errors
What is granular garden fertilizer?
Granular or dry fertilizer is a type of fertilizer which comes in a dry pelleted form, as opposed to spikes, a liquid, or powder. Most garden stores carry several different types of granular fertilizer, along with an array of formulations which are designed to address specific soil conditions. This type of fertilizer has both advantages and disadvantages which gardeners have to consider before use.
What is the texture of sugar?
Granular.
